Rapid evolution of flowering time by an annual plant in response to a climate fluctuation.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 23 Jan 2007

Franks Steven J, Sim Sheina, Weis Arthur E

Abstract excerpt

Ongoing climate change has affected the ecological dynamics of many species and is expected to impose natural selection on ecologically important traits. Droughts and other anticipated changes in precipitation may be particularly potent selective factors, especially in arid regions. Here we demonstrate the evolutionary response of an annual plant, Brassica rapa, to a recent climate fluctuation resulting in a...
